CHFL interleague squad revealed

Central Highlands Football League coach Clive Raak has turned to experienced defender Mark Gunnell to help lead the team’s defensive division in its AFL Victoria Community Championships showdown next month.

Gunnell has been appointed to the on-field coaching panel and will be handed the responsibility of looking after the backline during a battle with the Southern league on May 13.

The Gordon footballer has been a long-time supporter of the senior representative concept, playing in all five of the league’s matches since it joined the statewide championships in 2012.

In 2016, Springbank coach Michael Searl was named backline coach, but hasn’t put up his hand for selection this year.

Gunnell will join captain and midfield coach Jarrod Morgan in the on-field leadership team, with discussions still taking place in regards to a forward line leader.
